Move On When Ready is Georgia’s new dual enrollment program that allows high school students (9th – 12th grade) to earn college credit while working on their high school diploma. Move On When Ready replaces Accel, HOPE Grant for dual enrollment and the previous Move On When Ready program. The new Move On When Ready program now covers tuition, mandatory fees and required textbooks.

The new Move On When Ready program is easier for students, parents and schools to understand – it is streamlined with one funding source and one set of eligibility requirements and regulations. In addition, Move On When Ready aims to expand dual enrollment opportunities by increasing the number of courses students can take for college credit and removing financial barriers to student participation. The goal of Move On When Ready is to increase college access and completion, and prepare students to enter the workforce with the skills they need to succeed.

Catoosa County Public Schools has a working relationship for MOWR with Dalton State College and Georgia Northwestern Technical College, but will also assist students in opportunities at other Georgia colleges.
